Why Global Issues?
In this fourth book in the Legacy series, Linda Ruas argues that we have a responsibility to bring global issues into our ELT classes. It’s the age of people power, the age of social unrest. We need to both reflect the real world outside the class and prepare learners for using their English in this world. In this short introduction to global issues, the author discusses why we should teach them, which global issues we should teach and how we can integrate global issues into practical ELT tasks.
